I’ve not been sleeping well, I’ve been putting in long days, I’ve been stressed. But everything’s ready, I had my final meeting with volunteers last night, I’m feeling good, and I actually slept 7 hours last night.
You know what’s amazing? My time reading all your posts while I have my morning coffee has been really calming for me and it’s created a little sanctuary for me away from the stressors at work. For awhile I was so stressed that even thinking about using time to exercise was causing more stress. But the comments of several of you regarding stress and exercise convinced me to carve out the time for it every day. And my focus on freggies has helped me eat healthy instead of grabbing junk. Other than being tired from lack of sleep, I actually feel pretty good. Hubby did tell me I was looking haggard but i can laugh at that and know that it’s temporary.
Even though the next 3 days will be 12+ hours, I still plan on tracking, staying on plan, and checking in here.
You’ve got this @biketheworld 🌟 I hope that everything goes well and that you have a good sleep each night to rise refreshed.1 -

Cals- yes
Exercise - no. Once again I had something in morning. Too blasted hot to go walk mid day then storms this evening
Have you tried indoor walking exercises? There are hundreds of them online (Utube Lucy Wyndham Read is my favourite). It's low impact and you can choose short routines. Just 5 minutes 4 times a day will achieve the 20 minutes. You might be surprised at how effective they are.
I do a lot of my exercise in short bursts (arthritis and other issues) and it still works.
Congratulations on the calories!4 -

Happy Birthday 🎉 @RangerRickL !
Deliberate pass day for me. I planned to take it as a reward for sticking to the plan. I ate my usual healthy food all day, tracked, ran, lifted weights. Then I got a big hamburger and fries, a couple sliders for the dog, and we celebrated.
I lost 2 lbs so far, and feel really good about it. I appreciate everyone here at UAC 🥰.

8/13/2021 (written on 8/14)
Exercise? Yes, barely.Stuck in court all day again, back to back hearings, but used the stairs once to get there from my office and back - the elevator the rest of the time since I always seemed to be running late. Did use the stairs to get down to the first floor and out at the end of the day. Rode the bus, so got my short walks there. And walked the dog. On the other hand, I was so danged sleepy last night that I nearly dropped my phone off the balcony about 4 times so I went to bed early. Woke up a couple of times during the night to listen to the rain, and slept through until Sienna got in my face this morning around 8. It was still sprinkling, but I took her out and she got her rowdy on with Valentine (her "boyfren"), Dexter and Chestnut (two much smaller dogs who don't really understand how to play with the big dogs) while I stood there with the other humans and tried not to get bowled over. Depending on the weather, I'll either get out for a ride or maybe I'll take the dog for a long walk on the path - the wash is a river again, although not yet running as full as it was a couple of weeks ago. Now, I have to get ready to go to the dentist. So not my favorite thing to do, but it's been a few years since I've cried through the appointment, now I just white-knuckle it.
Hahahah!
Tracking? Yep
Within budget? Nope.
Another pass day. And my weight is up. I'm on the back step of my cha cha... I'll move forward again.
Happy belated @RangerRickL! I hope you had a most frabjous day!4 -
